You have to love Chiefs running back Larry Johnson. He had the nerve to blast head coach Todd Haley on Twitter, saying among other things, that his father has more credentials than Haley, how his father played for the coach from “Remember the Titansâ€, and how his father played for the Redskins, while Haley played [...]
Tuomo Ruutu has solidified his reputation as the dirtiest player in the NHL. This blind-side boarding hit on Darcy Tucker, with Tucker facing the glass, is a clear indication of that. Ruutu saw an opportunity to punish a defenseless opponent.  Tucker is now out indefinitely after suffering a serious concussion, while Ruutu received a five minute boarding major and game misconduct, but [...]
As with any NHL season, there has been a fair share of injuries so far. Johan Franzen was lost to the Detroit Red Wings until February with a torn ACL. Daniel Sedin of the Canucks is out with a broken foot for another couple of weeks. Montreal defenseman Andrei Markov is out 3-4 months after suffering [...]
San Francisco +3 at Houston
Wide receiver Michael Crabtree will make his professional debut in this game. The 49ers could certainly use a dangerous offensive weapon in their passing attack, but it’s hard to believe that Crabtree will be able to provide such a weapon right off the bat. Running back Frank Gore is healthy and [...]
Week Six brought a couple of teams back down to Earth. The 4-1 Bengals lost to the 2-3 Texans at home. The Redskins managed to once again lose to a winless team for the fourth time so far this season. The Seahawks, who defeated the Jaguars 41-0 last week, lost to the Cardinals 27-3 on [...]

1.     San Jose Sharks: Now just because I placed them first does not mean that I think they will win the Stanley Cup, I don’t. The addition of Dany Heatley certainly gives them a scary top line that no defense will look forward to facing. The key to their offense is the secondary scoring and [...]
Houston +5 at Cincinnati
The Texans were many people’s surprise team heading into this season, but after five weeks and a 2-3 record, they look like they’re heading for another 7-9 or 8-8 season. They haven’t been able to get Steve Slaton and the running game untracked and their short yardage offense has failed miserably with [...]
Power hitting prowess in an all-star filled lineup or small-ball and speed? That’s what we have in the American League Championship Series between the Yankees and Angels. It’ll probably all come down to pitching anyway, but we analyzed both lineups to see who has the edge with a breakdown of every position to predict the AL Pennant [...]
The National League Championship Series has been set, with the Dodgers riding Matt Holliday’s error in Game 2 to sweep the Cardinals and the Phillies defeating Rockies closer Huston Street twice to defeat the Rockies in four games. Let’s go position by position and take a look at the NLCS.

Philadelphia: Ryan Howard, a playoff [...]
Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin set a franchise record with 250 yards receiving against the Chiefs on Sunday. Dallas has been looking for a big play receiver and Austin may be it. Austin should’ve been the starter for Dallas all along. He is the only Dallas receiver who can get deep. Patrick Crayton who is/was [...]
